Food microwaved in plastic containers can put you or your unborn child at a greater risk of infertility, diabetes, obesity and cancer as described by Dr Rama Sofat.
Experts have found that heating food in plastic containers in a microwave oven can cause high blood pressure, affect fertility, and damage the brain functioning.
On that note, heating plastic containers in the microwave releases 95 percent of all chemicals.
The most hazardous chemicals in plastic containers are bisphenol A, commonly known as BPA, and phthalate. The BPA we ingest gets into our bloodstream and may lead to a series of problems like infertility, hormonal changes, changes in gender traits and even different types of cancers.
They also have side effects on animals causing testicular cancer, genital deformations, low sperm counts, and infertility in a number of species
The disturbing truth is that heat transfers the chemicals in plastic very effectively into your food. When the food is heated, the food touching the plastic receives the chemicals leaching out. Eating those chemicals can increase risks of cancer, infertility and havoc on the normal functioning of reproductive systems and your brain.
Glass never transfer chemicals the same way as plastic, and is much safer for heating your meals in. An increase in plastic use in everyday lifestyles could be a contributing factor, causing an increase of infertility worldwide
